I'm not sure if anything in the forum has changed,
but the ad style that overlays random words with green hyperlinks (linking to ads via Vibrant) really messes with the flow of conversation, and adds confusion when the forum text already has HTML hotlinks to other sites.

I don't know if you have ANY control over these, but they seem to be much more common now since the latest MMi site upgrade. (and pretty darned irritating, IMO) Its a different irritation from misbehaving Flash applets, for sure. Probably not as big a "problem", but Vibrant ads hurt usability.

I will consider your suggestion and will likely do something about it (IE limit those to logged out users only)
